I think the trouble with assuming that all news sources are lying or corrupt you end up going to another extreme and reliying on highly biased crack pot stuff.

Either everything the UK mainstream media tells you is 100% true, or it isn't. If it isn't, there must be other opportunities to find it. It's up to you to sort the wheat from the chaff, but most UK news outlets are very, very much chaff.There's a middle ground. It isn't a case of 100% true or it is all lies. A balanced view of what you read and listen to is possible.

I think I might have seen one review in my many years of reading the magazine that was close to complimentary: it was a comedian's book - can't recall the name, but maybe it was written by Paul O'Grady.

And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. 'Who controls the past' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'
Ah, yes. Always clever, and frequently juicily and meanly balloon deflating.Andy Kev.":28o8iiwg said:I always enjoy Snipcock & Tweed, though.
https://swprs.org/a-swiss-doctor-on-covid-1Regarding the situation in Italy: Most major media falsely report that Italy has up to 800 deaths per day from the coronavirus. In reality, the president of the Italian Civil Protection Service stresses that these are deaths „with the coronavirus and not from the coronavirus“ (minute 03:30 of the press conference). In other words, these persons died while also testing positive.
AJB Temple":16140eqs said:Scam? Maybe. But we have 50 dead doctors in Italy and 10,000 other deaths. I am not sure that this can be explained away by conspiracy theory.
I do agree that the the Euro is in deep trouble. Britain is out and will not bank roll desperate Italy and Spain and the Germans cannot fund everything. I read the German and Swiss press most days and I think that we will see a sea change in the next two years. France postures a lot but is not enamoured with subsidising other countries .
Imports from China will not recover IMO. Trust has gone completely. It will take years for supply chains to be sorted out. But that presents opportunities. Significant ones.
